This book is ... interesting. There are definitely some things I like about it. It was fast paced and, while I didn't enjoy it, I also couldn't put it down. Matthews has a tight, concise style. I found it amusing that this story was so loosely situated in Vancouver - probably West Van, given that this is where the rich and powerful live. But the characters were hard to believe and extremely hard to care about. The premise that some rich white kids are going to protest the treatment of homeless people by storming through a store, stealing $4,000 worth of merchandise - and then keeping it to themselves! In what reality is this justice? I just found the moral vacuum that these young people seemed to exist in to be unrealistic and totally not believable. As a high school teacher, I can honestly say I could never see any of my students being pulled into this kind of situation - but maybe they are just not rich enough!
